Protecting Khowai

I visited Bolpur yesterday. There has been a High Court judgment recently that prohibits any construction till a development plan is notified that will protect the Khowai areas and prevent indiscriminate building construction. I learnt that Khowai is an undulating red laterite soil formation typical of Shantiniketan. I spoke to District Magistrate, SDO, Sriniketan Shantiniketan Development Authority, Jogen Chowdhury, Chairman Bolpur Municipality and Viswabharati Registrar and other officers. I will submit my observations to the Governemnt next week.
